Abstract
Novel Selenium derivatives of thyroxine and tri-iodothyronine have the formula: ##STR1## wherein M is I or H and either (a) R1 is OH or a carboxyl protecting group and R2 contains at least one Se, preferably 75 Se, atom or (b) R2 is H or an amino protecting group and R1 contains at least one Se, preferably 75 Se, atom.
The compounds are useful in dual isotope assays of thyroid function.
